Chapter 4Sustainable Operations and Development

Now that you know how to manage failed jobs and write jobs that are safe to retry automatically, it’s time to dive into some more long-term operational concerns. We’ll start with considerations around performance monitoring and how Sidekiq can help you understand your system.

We’ll then talk about two techniques—concurrency and priority queues—that are part of Sidekiq that can help improve performance. Finally, we’ll go over some more advanced code organization concerns you’ll need as you use Sidekiq more and more.
